    If you have spare tickets for the first showing, i think it is between the 16 and 19 april. I would be very happy to purchase them.

    I waited from 8:00 - 2:00 and all the first tickets were sold out!!!!

    please, post a message, send a private message or e-mail me at darthvader@hotmail.co.uk

    PS - is there any more news about the SW marathon

    No tickets were available for 16th-18th. First showing on the 19th was like 11.30am I think - there is no midnight showing planned - rang them and that's what they said :(

    how boring is that, dont they try to do anything interesting here for the biggest movie launch ever. I mean in the US they have 12, yes 12, charity premieres.
    So, if the first showing is on the 19th does anyone have spare tickets for that?

    As the film distributor has tried to arrange nothing cool in the UK at least the fans will make Leicester Square the best.

    I know, quite why they have not arranged anything I don't know? Episode II was the best movie experience I've ever had when I saw the midnight showing at Leicester Square...I don't want to watch it with a bunch of so so people, I want to watch it with people who care about the film like I do.

    Although the organisation is poor on the film distributors part. I hope the fans make up for this at the first showing, (for - others reading this, i would still like a ticket) beacuse if Lucas, Fox and Co. are not interested in the UK at least the fans are.

    Try phoning the odeon, they are selling tickets for Leicester Sq on the 19th that way (I've just got 2 for the 10:30 showing, and the web thinks they have sold out).

    I think there internet was hacked last night, the tickets where selling to quick and nobody stays up to 1am to get tickets for 2 weeks after any film opens.

    What is the official opening date now?

    As there will be lots of fan activities happening on the 19th, does anyone know what is the best time to book odeon tickets to make sure one does not miss out on these "events".

    the showings are:
    10:30, 13:15, 20:15 and 11:45

    But i can get:
    10:15, 13:45, 20:15 and 23:45, i believe

    20:30 is best for me as I said in your other thread, do you know how many tickets are still available and what seating?

    I'm guessing the early showings will be where most fans go - but then there are those who won't be able to get the day off work like me, so perhaps the later showings will be good...

    It's either the 20:30 showing or the 23:35 showing...

    I know - but earlier today they didn't have any dates for EP III! So perhaps they are slowly putting them online?

    Hey,

    I gotta get four tickets, but preferably it would be for the 20:45 showing on the 19th...

    You can't book online with UCI(Empire) - if you ring they say they aren't even showing EP III!!

    the only tickets for the leicester square for the first 2 weeks at least will be the odeon. The Empire and VUE cannot show epiii at leicester square.

    I'm not that bothered by the 19th

    What bothers me is the FFUK meetup on the 21st that doesn't look like its gonna happen cos either no tickets are available or everyone has different times

    I would think so, considering its the only Cinema showing it
    But no-one has pre-booked any tickets and the ODEON site says it has none available until 26th of May
